Bullying

Trisha

Were any other girls bullied at school? I'm not being bullied but my little sis is Year 7 and she's got Downs and a girl told me she's being bullied for it. I'm not sure what to do about it. I feel like confronting the bullies but I don't want to make it worse for Holly. I won't say to the teachers because no one does that in our school, if you grass you'll be singled out later on. So I think I need to deal with it but I don't know how.

Was any of you bullied? If you could say how you dealt with it that would be a big help.

Thanks.

  • Hi Trisha, sorry that your sister is being bullied. Unfortunately being different often leads to bullies targeting them. I find the best way is to confront the bullies, often confrontation will make them step back. Talking to the teacher is a good move as well. They can then keep an eye on her during lessons.

    Confronting the bullies first is a good place to start. Bullies don't like being confronted.
